Match description
Sport Recife has a clear home advantage: in eight home matches they recorded 4 wins and 4 draws (0 losses), scoring 1.5 goals and conceding only 0.75 goals per game with an average xG 1.58 versus opposition xG 1.35. CRB away wins 25% of matches, draws 50% and loses 25%, scoring 1.5 goals per game but conceding as many as 1.75 and carrying a negative goal difference (-1). In the last 5 matches Sport has 4 wins and 1 loss (2.4 points per game on average), while CRB has 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss (2.0 points per game), which indicates slightly better form for the hosts. In chance creation both teams register a similar number of shots (~14) and shots on target (6.75 vs 6.5), and CRB’s away xG (1.66) is slightly higher than Sport’s home xG (1.58); however CRB’s high possession (59% vs 50%) does not translate into defensive solidity. Considering Sport’s lower average goals conceded at home (0.75 vs 1.75), a higher clean sheet rate for the hosts (50% vs 0%) and better recent form, I predict a home victory.
